In June 2023, I delegated to the City of Brampton to declare IPV an epidemic. Today, I went to Queen’s Park and saw Bill 173, the IPV Epidemic Act, pass the second reading after years of advocacy by community parters, survivors, and their families. It’s about time.
Privileged to join @TheAgenda with @spaikin alongside experts Kelly Beele, Casandra Diamond & Gary Bezaire. Together we addressed alarming truths and strategies to combat human trafficking in Ontario. Honored to contribute to this vital discussion. #EndHumanTrafficking #Awareness
Collecting social identity data is vital to doing work with marginalized communities, but we also need to recognize the potential risks and apply a #DataEquity lens to avoid reinforcing historical harms of data collection. Lessons from @UWGreaterTO

It was a pleasure speaking to @1800222TIPS podcast about #HumanTrafficking in the GTA. Talking about human trafficking and how to spot it are some of the first steps in the journey towards supporting survivors. tinyurl.com/HTpodcastcrime…
Today, our Brampton City Council was joined by @PeelSafe, @PCAWA1, GEquity Consulting and Community Activist, Zanana L. Akande as Council passed a motion to declare a gender-based violence and intimate-partner violence an epidemic. The @CityBrampton stands with and advocates…
Thank you to @Navjitkaurbrar for bringing forward a motion to call gender-based violence an epidemic in Brampton, seconded by @RoweSantos and passed unanimously by council. It was an honour delegating to council today, alongside @msamanmann.
Your reminder that traffickers incur an average debt of $23,500 under their victim's name. Financial institutions are allowed to take this money from victims and credit bureaus can include this on credit reports We need compassion for survivors, not for big banks #ISupportBill41
A Buckingham Palace Aid resigned over making racist remarks By firing just one person from an institution that's built on imperialism, how are we resolving the deeper issue at hand? We need to examine the role the British monarchy has played in the construction of racism itself

Today Ford govt said they will support our Bill 173 and Declare Intimate Partner Violence an EPIDEMIC. But when?! Tell the Ford govt to make Bill 173 law NOW. Survivors should not have to wait any longer. #onpoli ontariondp.ca/bill-173
Thanks to the tireless work of NDP MPPs and community advocates, Ontario is one step closer to declaring intimate partner violence an epidemic. #PassBill173 #EndIPVEpidemic #SupportSurvivors More here: ontariondp.ca/news/ndp-victi…
Thank you to everyone who joined us at Queen's Park today to support Bill 173. We are one step closer to declaring #IPV an epidemic in this province. We will keep the pressure on the govt to make Bill 173 law. Survivors shouldn't have to wait any longer. The time to act is NOW!
Today was a major step forward in declaring intimate partner violence as an epidemic in Ontario. Instead of tying up Bill 173 in committee hearings & red tape, Ford should act now on the full Renfrew Inquest report he’s had since 2022. #ONpoli
My colleagues @JILLSLASTWORD @LGretzky @kristynwongtam & @PeggySattlerNDP won a major victory for survivors across the province today. Let's continue to work on getting intimate partner violence declared an epidemic in the province of Ontario. #onpoli @OntarioNDP

Biden has repeatedly promised to boost diversity in national security institutions. But what does that mean when officials from historically underrepresented groups don't feel able to speak up on the most sensitive, topical issues? Here's the view of one person in the admin:
I’m speaking into the void but this is what twitter is basically for right
Tahani Mustafa spoke so well tonight, so clear and factual, against such a biased and deliberately ignorant presenter. I don’t know how the BBC can pretend to be objective when they’re so clearly trying to lead people into certain answers, and cut them off when they veer away
